Fuck these cowards, I look forward to their sentencing and less-than-honorable-discharges.
Some military charges like conduct unbecoming would be nice, too. The military courts don't fuck around.
When in doubt, there's always UCMJ Article 134. It's a catch-all for things not specifically defined and could probably be added in with the theft charges or whatever they end up doing.
Yup, and failing that, good ol' Separation for the Convenience of the Government.
Separation?
?? you need to be more verbose with your queries - what part is confusing, the word separation or the part where someone's kicked out of gov't service?
Convenience of Government (COG)
A reason for separation from Active Duty which allows discharge before completion of the obligated period of service and is a factor in determining eligibility under Chapters 30 and 32. Service members must have served a minimum of 20 months of a two-year enlistment or 30 months of a three-year enlistment in order to retain eligibility when released for COG.
Figure that one's a given. Wasn't sure if they'd slap on something additional for crimes of bias or otherwise pile on charges as an example to others.
You can get court-martialed for infidelity. I’d be shocked if they go free; theft of property, criminal trespass, conduct unbecoming, etc
